The Evolution of the Word Contest: From Print to Online
Originally known as “Are you well-worded?”, the Word Contest made its debut in the hard copy editions of the Tabloid, gracing the pages of Volume 3 and continuing into Volume 4. With each edition, readers found themselves immersed in intricate crosswords, competing for intellectual bragging rights as they solved puzzles that tested their language skills and mental agility. The puzzles became an instant hit, offering a combination of fun and challenge that resonated with a wide audience.
However, in response to the digital era and the increasing demand for interactive, online competitions, LevelUp has now migrated the contest from print to its online platform. With this shift, “Are you well-worded?” has evolved into the Word Contest, a fully digital experience that retains the essence of its predecessor while embracing modern, tech-savvy formats.
